Investec a conseill\u00e9 les fondateurs de Prescient Security dans la cession d’une participation majoritaire du Groupe \u00e0 SGS, l’un des leaders mondiaux du Testing, de l’Inspection et de la Certification.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A propos du deal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fond\u00e9 en 2018, Prescient Security est une plateforme technologique de certification en cybers\u00e9curit\u00e9. Le Groupe certifie la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des syst\u00e8mes d’information, la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des paiements et la protection des donn\u00e9es pour les r\u00e9f\u00e9rentiels SOC 2, ISO 27001 et 42001, PCI DSS et HITRUST, ainsi que des exigences f\u00e9d\u00e9rales am\u00e9ricaines FedRAMP et CMMC. Sa technologie propri\u00e9taire transforme un processus d’audit traditionnellement manuel en un parcours digitalis\u00e9 et assist\u00e9 par l’IA, int\u00e9gr\u00e9 aux principales plateformes de conformit\u00e9 (GRC). Le Groupe accompagne plus de 5 000 clients dans le monde – \u00e9diteurs SaaS et grandes entreprises de la finance, de la sant\u00e9, de la distribution, de la technologie et de la d\u00e9fense – depuis l’Am\u00e9rique du Nord, l’Europe, l’Inde et les Philippines. Cofond\u00e9 et dirig\u00e9 par Fabrice Mouret (CEO) et Sammy Chowdhury (COO), le Groupe a connu une forte croissance depuis da cr\u00e9ation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 l’issue d’un processus de cession concurrentiel men\u00e9 par Investec, SGS a finalis\u00e9 le 1er octobre 2026 l’acquisition d’une participation majoritaire dans Prescient Security. Les fondateurs conservent une participation minoritaire et continueront de diriger le Groupe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ce rapprochement permettra \u00e0 Prescient Security de s’appuyer sur le r\u00e9seau international et la notori\u00e9t\u00e9 de SGS pour poursuivre son d\u00e9veloppement, tout en renfor\u00e7ant l’offre de cybers\u00e9curit\u00e9 de SGS en Am\u00e9rique du Nord. L’acquisition constitue une \u00e9tape importante dans le d\u00e9veloppement de la plateforme Digital Trust de SGS, pour laquelle le groupe vise au moins 200 MCHF de revenus additionnels d’ici 2027 par rapport \u00e0 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
